Information

Ziele, Inhalte und Methode der Lehrveranstaltung

The aim of this PhD seminar is for students working in a variety of subject areas in humanities to explore the pleasures (and pains) of interdisciplinary work. The course offers PhD candidates in these fields the opportunity to present their projects and receive in-depth peer feedback, allowing ample time for discussion and suggestions. A number of sessions will tackle the process of designing and writing a dissertation and will be devoted to supporting students in their individual needs and problems. Apart from presenting their own PhD projects, they will be asked to address recent theoretical and methodological developments (taking their own work as inspiration).
This is an in-person learning course with synchronous and asynchronous elements. Methods include discussions, team and group work units, individual work, input sessions.

Literatur

While we shall build up the course based on your needs, you may already have a look at Booth, whose book is a classic when it comes to structuring research. You can also check Kelleter for newest cult-lit approaches. Portwood-Stacer is good if you are planning to turn your PhD into a sellable book.
